Regional secretary, Jossey Buthane, says the party cannot take responsibility for the actions of a group at the Mall of North.

A group of people, wearing EFF regalia, trashed a Vodacom shop at the mall on Sunday.

They are unhappy after a picture of party leaders Julius Malema and Floyd Shivambu was shown at the Vodacom Journalist of the Year awards, captioned "abusers of democracy".

Buthane says just because people wear t-shirts from a particular party doesn't mean they are supporters or members. 

"Are you telling me you never wear a t-shirt of Omo, then are you an Omo person?"

Earlier on Monday the DA laid charges against the EFF following the incident.
